The announcement came as a shock to many, especially since the couple had previously appeared to lead a picture-perfect life. They are parents to two sons, Aarav and Ayaan, and have often shared glimpses of their family life on social media. However, recent speculation about their relationship intensified when Aarti deleted all photos of Jayam from her Instagram account, leading fans to wonder about the state of their marriage.

The couple’s marriage, which began in June 2009, was a love story that captivated many. Aarti is the daughter of noted television producer Sujatha Vijayakumar. Throughout their time together, they shared many milestones, including their children’s growth and various family outings.
As Jayam Ravi prepares for his upcoming projects, including films like “Brother” and “Kadhalikka Neramillai,” he remains focused on his career while navigating this personal upheaval. The actor has always been transparent with his fans, and this announcement is no exception.
